    Jesus suffered in every aspect of his body: from the crown of his head to the soles of his feet. His face was wounded, His back was beaten, His side and heart were pierced, and even His eyes were blinded with trickles of blood. The seven ways He suffered atoned for the sins of the world.

We come to know God as we experience Him in . . . You will never be satisfied just to know ABOUT God. Really knowing God only ...read more

    Choice

     | 7,174 views

    See here is a great truth… it is not enough to believe that Jesus exists, or that he lived long ago, or that he was a good man, or even a great man

    Choice John 9 Today we have a very familiar story, but I want to come at it from a different angle. Let’s cruise through the story. Jesus is walking through the streets of Jerusalem, in the middle of a large crowd. He did this because he was hiding. If you look at the end of chapter 8, you ...read more

    Jesus' healing of the blind man in Mark 8 illustrates four points: 1) Some people just want to come out of the darkness. 2) Our ministry can sometimes only lift the darkness. 3) The religious expectations of others can be harmful. 4) There are times when

    Seeing Clearly Mark 8:22-26 Seeing is a strange thing. An infant can see a john deer tractor and not benefit from it. A farmer can see a jar of smashed carrots and not be drawn to it. A doctor can see blurry images on a glass slide and be excited about what it tells him. A preacher can see three ...read more

    As we look at the Church at Laodicea may we compare our lives with their characteristics to see if we need revival as individuals and as a Church.

    God's Obedient Servant Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 15, 2011
     | 12,731 views

    What do we do when the lights go out in our world? It’s simple: Don’t trust yourself; trust the Lord. Rely on His unfailing love. Rely on His unlimited power, and rely on His obedient Servant, Jesus Christ, who CHOSE to die for us.

    Vance Havner was one of my favorite preachers when I was growing up, because had a wonderful, witty way of putting things that really made you think. He went home to be with the Lord quite a while ago, but I remember a story he told about two Indians who from a distance had been watching a ...read more

    Last Hours Of Jesus' Life - Free From Passivity

    Contributed by Joanne Chan on May 18, 2018
     | 5,414 views

    In this sermon, we look at how the people mocked Jesus as he walked toward the hill of Golgotha, and contrast that with his encounter with Simon from Cyrene to see what it really means to carry the cross for Jesus.

    Central theme: Jesus denied himself and took the punishment for us with total dedication. We should take up the cross and follow Jesus, which means denying our old self (our comfort, your desires) and live for God because God is leading us to an even better place. Opening: Think of a place ...read more

    There is more to the faith and to the work of the church than trying to raise a "nice" army. There are those things that are actually of greater importance.

    Ever have a bad day? That’s a bit of a rhetorical question actually. All of us have.
